摘要
气候变化威胁着小农的生产力和创收,并加剧了家庭粮食不安全。因此,适应和应对策略对于小农家庭减轻气候变化的影响至关重要。本研究采用文献计量学分析方法,考察了 2010 年至 2022 年期间小农应对和适应气候变化战略(SFCA-SCC)的研究趋势。研究人员对 Scopus 和 Web of Science(WoS)数据库中的 1635 篇论文进行了分析,以了解该领域的特点并观察研究趋势。这些数据库中的文章显示,在研究期间,论文数量呈上升趋势(54-300 篇),这表明气候变化适应和应对策略研究的重要性。研究结果表明,大多数研究都来自工业化国家的机构,而新兴经济体的机构很少。研究结果表明,小农采用了一系列适应和应对机制来减轻气候变化的影响,如改变种植计划、作物品种多样化等。非洲的研究人员和机构必须开展更多的研究,以制定减轻气候变化风险的战略。
Smallholder farmers’ coping and adaptation strategies to climate change: Evidence from a bibliometric analysis
Climate change threatens smallholder farmers' productivity, revenue generation, and increases household food insecurity. Thus, adaptation and coping strategies are paramount for smallholder farming households to mitigate these impacts of climate change. This study used a bibliometric analysis to examine smallholder farmers’ coping and adaptation strategies to climate change (SFCA-SCC) research trends from 2010 to 2022. A total of 1635 papers were analysed from Scopus and Web of Science (WoS) databases to characterize the field and observe research trends. The articles from these databases demonstrate an upward trend in publications (54–300) over the period under study, signifying the importance of research on adaptation and coping strategies of climate change. The research findings showed that majority of studies originated from institutions in industrialized countries, while very few did so from emerging economies. According to the findings, smallholder farmers have embraced a range of adaptation and coping mechanisms to mitigate the impacts of climate change, such as altering planting schedules, and diversifying crop varieties among others. It is imperative for African researchers and institutions to engage in more research aimed at developing strategies to mitigate the risks posed by climate change.
